About this listen

 This episode explores how collective music playing and listening can be used as a tool for creating community and social change. Julian Herniquez, filmmaker and researcher at Goldsmiths University of London, is the guest. Sound system culture is an outdoor music tradition, often reggae and dancehall, known for its intense bass and community spirit. Born in Jamaica, it spread to places like the UK, offering vibes of protest, joy, and social connection. Today, it thrives in Europe with young generations, but faces challenges in the UK. Its impact includes unity, cultural exchange, and critical voices. The future lies in bridging generations and adapting while holding onto its core values.
